Better than Bose

I already owned the Bose QC35 when getting these, so here is my comparison between the two:
- The Beats offer far greater wireless range and stability along with easier pairing and switching between devices.
- They both have similar battery life with ANC turned on (~20 hours) but the beats offer 20 additional hours with ANC off.
- The sound profile is different between the two, but they both sound great.
- The ANC is good on both headphones. In my experience the QC35's ANC is eliminating more noise immediately
after being turned on, while the Beats ANC is supposed to be adaptive.
- They both have similar controls on the headset but Beats also allow you to toggle ANC on and off.
- You configure the Bose headphones through an app. The Beats are completely integrated with iOS like the AirPods.
- Both have similar build quality. The Beats look better but The QC35's offer slightly better comfort. I noticed some ear/top of head pressure with the Beats.
In short: I prefer the Beats.

For reference, I own Bose QC35, Sony MDR-1000x and the new Beats Studio3 (I just sold a gen 2 Studio Pro) and I sit on the living room floor, entertaining my wife with testing and comparing these headphones. The new Beats (after a long break in) sound pretty much like the gen 2’s but the ANC actually works. It’s not as good as the Bose or the Sony but it’s pretty good in most environments. Personally, I think the Beats has the best sounds for the wide variety of music that I listen to and I do like a lot of bass to come through in my home and mobile audio set ups. Since I like the sound of the Beats the most, I can give up a little ANC here and there. One of my tests is vacuuming the floors. In the past, I could never use my beats, I’d have to use the Bose QC’s but now, I can use the Studio3! They are 85% of the Bose but close enough to listen to music with the vac wailing away. Something I find maddening is that Beats provides us with a headphone cord that has a 90º angle where it plugs into the source. Well, since we have to use the idiotic lightning to 3.5mm dongle with the 90º plug the two shapes fight with each other (SJ could have never allowed such a mismatch!) To solve it, I got a straight cord, with iPhone controls from another retailer. Another irritant is that there is barely enough room in the egg shell case to hold a charging and 3.5mm cord. All my other headphones come with some form of cable management pocket, not the Beats (old or new versions). I was hoping that they would add that. I do like the fast fuel, it works as promised. Another dislike is the depth of the ear cups. They are so shallow that my small ears touch the inside! Back to the sound, it’s rich and full with deep, but not ridiculous, bass. I could go on and on but if you like the sound profile of the Beats, get the Studio3. The ANC actually works this time around!!

These are a quality build headphone, sound good etc. They dont get 5 stars for these three reasons...
Always a pain to put them on and hit the on/off button and expect them to pair and play in like 2 seconds or less. Problem is the boot up lag is so long you press on/off again turning them off. Only to start the process over again. They need to make a sound the instant after you press the on button.
Reason they lost another star - They charge with micro usb. Ohhhh what other Apple smartphone has used micro usb in the past 11 years? None. Wth - these should be charged with a lightning cable so they interop with all my Apple phone chargers. Wish they would turn on noise canceling without 3 minute auto shutoff. If you dont pair them on BT and just want noise canceling feature you have to plug in the audio cable into your wireless headphones or they shutoff in about 3 minutes. Ill ding them a 3rd star for this broken scenario.

I've had various Jaybird wireless headphones and they were fine. Compared to those, these Beats are significantly better connection wise. I'm fairly certain that Class 1 Bluetooth and the W1 chip are what make these headphones fantastic. At the end of the day audio quality is important but I care more about a solid, fast, long range connection. With both my iPhone XS and MacBook Pro these headphones stay connected throughout my entire property. Through walls, inside, outside, second floor, etc. There is next to no lag so watching videos is pleasant. The volume and play/pause/answer button seem to work on both iOS and macOS. Beats have always seemed low value, but if these headphones hold up I suspect I'll stick with the brand.

The sound system is great, the noise cancellation is excellent. If I was writing this comment 5 months ago when I recently bought it, it would have gotten a 5 star easily. However, 5 months in and the plastic part that holds the extension bit starts to break easily. If I am lucky, I can get 2 more months off it. For, the price I doubt it is worth the lifespan. Everything else seems great though.

I ran with the headphones. They feel comfortable. It is just that I don't want to ruin the headphone with my sweat.. But if you want to use them for running, you absolutely can.
